Why you'll love this recipe
Con
A simple and healthy side dish. I love sheet pan meals because everything goes on one large baking tray and you're done. These roasted veggies are no exception! Add some garlic parmesan pork chops or Mississippi pork roast and you have a meal.
Versatile. These kinds of recipes are an awesome way to use up leftover vegetables hanging out in your fridge - because sometimes we get carried away in the produce department. It happens.
Tasty! Roasting vegetables at high heat deepens and intensifies the sweetness in the vegetables. If you're into that sort of thing, check out these roasted maple balsamic Brussels sprouts.
In fact, our kids actually LOVE roasted veggies, so don’t fall off your dinner chair if this becomes a new family favorite.
Ingredients
- bell peppers - Any color you want works here, though red, yellow and orange are the sweetest. If you have mini-bell peppers, use those.
- mushroom caps – You can use button mushrooms, white mushrooms or baby Portabellas – they’re all good!
- red onion – The red variety of onions adds some nice color and has some extra colorful nutrients!
- Brussels sprouts – Many times you can find these already trimmed and pre-washed. Even our local Aldi carries them so they’re in my cart at every single trip! Roasting these Brussels sprouts will bring out a gentler, softer side.
- garlic powder – A standard pantry staple in my kitchen.
- Herbs de Provence or Italian seasoning – either works to get the Mediterranean vibes cooking.
- extra virgin olive oil
- balsamic vinegar
- salt and black pepper
How to make Mediterranean Roasted Vegetables
We want our oven good and hot, so crank it up to 425 degrees. I like to line my rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a reusable silicone baking mat.
For best results, cut the vegetables into pieces that are a similar size. This way they'll all cook at the same time.
- Step 1: Combine all the vegetables you’re using – peppers, mushrooms, onion, and Brussels sprouts plus whatever else you’re adding to the party – in a large bowl.
Add the seasonings, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Using a spoon or your clean hands, gently toss to combine.
Give them a little salt and pepper love and spread onto a baking sheet.
- Step 2: If you need to use two baking sheets instead of one, do it. We don't want to crowd the pan.
Roast for 40-45 minutes, stirring half way through.
Important Tip: Be sure not to overcrowd your pan! I’m serious here, folks! We want the vegetables to caramelize and brown and they’ll steam instead if the pan in overloaded.
I like to rotate the pan once, too, so I have even cooking all the way around. Does your oven have a hot side? Mine does!
When the veggies are fork tender, remove from the oven. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Variations
Go seasonal: In the summer months, use summer vegetables that are in season. Yellow squash, zucchini and cherry tomatoes work well in this recipe.
Make it a meal: Turn this into a meal by adding a protein (garlic pork chops anyone?) and a whole grain. Delish!
Make it cheesy: Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese or feta cheese for extra flavor.
Serving Suggestions
These roasted Mediterranean vegetables are incredible served warm or at room temperature.
Leftovers can be repurposed as a healthy addition to a chopped salad, or as a pizza topping.
